K9 Warriors: Meet “Nero”

About: Royal Dutch KNPV trained dog that is very clear headed and calm, but all business when he needs to be. This dog has a presence.

You can look forward to our new monthly K9 Warriors feature brought to us by my good friend and former SEAL teammate Mike Ritland. Mike is the author of K9 Trident Warriors and the owner of Trikos International. Mike has some of the best personal protection dogs in the world. We’ll feature a new dog each month and include training videos and other cool features about these amazing animals. Enjoy, and let us know what you think about Nero, what a bad ass…

I personally think that owning a dog is one of the best protective measures a family can have in a home. -Brandon

JHR13 Recon6 RR. I certainly Hope you do Not lose your Lab!! I have a choc. Lab that is 'human', most intelligent dog ever. Does everything except 'speak', lol, so I can only imagine your connection with your Lab.
I no longer hunt as I don't eat meat but I still recall the excitement of the hunt....6

Recon6 Its gorgeous in the hunting arena. I hunt when I need to, not seasonally any more. Perhaps these dogs are just responding to their environmental upbringing with me alone. The rule of thumb at my uncles and his training program, is to have one on one. I've had 2 with me for a while and it is working. BTW, I may lose my awesome Lab. Kicked in the head yesterday by a horse.
